Chapter Fourteen The Troubled Heart

Lin Bi stood on the deck, looking coldly at the Jinghai Villa that was gradually going away. A middle-aged guard came up behind her and reported: "Your Highness, I wonder what we should do next?"

Lin Bi lightly frowned and said: "When I first entered Jinghai Villa, I still had the idea of ​​waiting for a move. However, Jinghai Villa lurked murderous intent, so I knew not to act rashly. I thought that since I knew the location of Jinghai Villa, there might be a good opportunity, but unexpectedly

Master Cizhen actually came to the East China Sea, which makes me very lucky that I didn't launch it without authorization. It seems that we can only assassinate him on the way."

The middle-aged guard frowned and said: "But didn't Master Cizhen come to welcome Princess Changle and Jiang Zhe back to Chang'an according to the order of Emperor Yong? They will be protected by heavy troops along the way, as well as Master Cizhen and Evil Shadow Li Shun.

To protect such a person, even the master himself may not be able to do anything to protect him. It would be a pity if he loses his troops in vain."

Lin Bi did not answer his question, but instead flicked her hair and said: "Xiao Huwei, you have been with Ting Fei for a long time and you are a disciple of the national master. Naturally, your eyesight is very different. What do you think of King Qi and Jiang Zhe?"

Although Xiao Huwei did not witness the situation above Tingtao Pavilion, he had already heard Lin Tong's vivid narration. He hesitated and said: "King Qi is indeed a famous general, but he is far from a general.

Too arrogant and overbearing, there may be opportunities to take advantage of it. As for Jiang Zhe, the subordinates found it very funny. They had heard that this man was extremely intelligent, but after hearing what the princess said, why did he feel that he looked like a different person?

The eldest child makes the subordinates somewhat doubt whether he is really the clever and scheming chief counselor of King Yong."

Lin Bi smiled faintly and said: "I thought it was funny at first. Before I met Jiang Zhe, I thought he was a brilliant and thoughtful genius. When we first met at the beach, I thought he was floating in the sky.

He is not a human being, but Tingtao Pavilion opened my eyes. This Jiang Zhe is innocent at heart, but this is what makes him scary. I used to be wary of him, but now I am afraid of him."

Xiao Huwei asked strangely: "Although his behavior is a bit funny, if the princess said that he is good at hiding it, my subordinates would not find it strange. But why does the princess think that is his true nature, but thinks he is more terrifying? My subordinates

I have also learned the art of war and strategies. They all say that a general must be calm and ruthless in order to be invincible. I think the same is true for planning. Isn't it said that a wise man is ruthless? If Jiang Zhe still has emotional weaknesses, why does the princess think he is more terrifying?

Woolen cloth?"

Lin Bi's eyes became dark and said: "I was a general in the Lin family. Although I am not a master of military art, I still have some unique insights. Some people say that leading troops in war requires ruthlessness. This is not bad, but according to our years of experience,

The experience of soldiers is that if the enemy general is completely ruthless and only uses troops according to the art of war and the situation, he will definitely be defeated. If the general is too ruthless, he will treat his soldiers as human beings, and he will not treat the enemy soldiers as human beings.

, although this way it is almost impossible to be misled by emotion, but fighting relies on soldiers. The general can be ruthless and calm, but the soldiers under his command are flesh and blood people who are capable of fear and hatred. Using soldiers in this way will ultimately lead to betrayal and alienation.

The same goes for being a counselor. The levels of counselors can be roughly divided into three levels. Although the third-level counselors have their own strengths and weaknesses, they also have their own weaknesses. If they fight against each other, each will win or lose. These people do not need to

Fear, the second-class counselors are ruthless and ruthless. They only have interests in their hearts. Although such people are scary, they also have opportunities. After all, people are ruthless. Although such people have powerful strategies, they often underestimate the people they are being targeted for.

They calculate the emotional factors of their opponents. Since ancient times, heroes have often died unexpectedly, and people who are good at planning often suffer their own consequences. This is because they forget that for some people, interests and power are not worth loyalty and family affection, and if a person only has interests in his heart

, then everything they do will be traceable. In this way, if their opponents are resourceful, they can guess their strategies. As long as they have sufficient strength, it will not be difficult to win. And the most terrifying first-class counselor is himself

They also have rich emotions, but they can abandon the influence of emotions when making suggestions. Such counselors are rare and difficult to deal with. However, such counselors also have weaknesses. Their talents and scheming often make people jealous and they are unwilling to get close to them.

, so they often find it difficult to give full play to their talents, and it is difficult for people around them to implement their strategies with all their heart. Although these third-class counselors are terrifying, they all have weaknesses that can be dealt with. But Jiang Zhe is different.

This limit has been exceeded.

You have also seen his tactics, which penetrate people's hearts like weak water, and are all-pervasive. He is best at using all available external forces, and he can see people's hearts as if they were on fire. But when I saw him today, I knew that the most terrifying thing about this man is that he

He has an innocent heart, no matter how vicious his tricks are, but he is sincere to the people around him. In this way, there will be no one around him to restrain him, and he can fully utilize his talents. You have also heard that not only

The Emperor of Dayong, Li Zhi, confided in him. Even the King of Qi, Li Xian, who had always been at odds with Li Zhi, was very fond of him and would not be angry because Jiang Zhe had touched him. Now, his son has become the future son-in-law of the King of Qi.

, is also a close disciple of Master Cizhen of Shaolin. Even Shaolin no longer regards him as a potential threat. Such a person has both earth-shattering methods and the charm of spring breeze. With him around, Dayong will never be able to fight again.

There are civil strife and disputes. Do you think this man is terrible? I can tell you from my heart, this man is my most serious concern in the Northern Han Dynasty. If he is not dead, I will not be able to feel at ease."

Xiao Huwei's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said: "Why don't we send people out and find a way to assassinate him at all costs?"

Lin Bi was noncommittal and said: "Do you think King Qi has a better military strategy than Ting Fei?"

Xiao Huwei was shocked: "How could His Highness ask this? How can the King of Qi be compared to the General? Not to mention that he has never been favored by the General in these years, but even in the hands of Prince Nan Chude, he has not

Did he also return in a disastrous defeat?"

Lin Bi sighed and said: "Actually, although the art of using troops sounds extremely complicated, in fact it is just about leading elite soldiers and knowing how to advance and retreat. This is already a rare famous general. If he can occasionally produce rare soldiers, he will be the best in the world."

There are only one or two people who can do it. The King of Qi is also a man with good military strategy. At that time, in terms of commanding on the battlefield, no one can be more powerful than the King of Qi, and the elite Dayong cavalry is not in our Northern Han Army.

However, King Qi was always suppressed by Ting Fei. Even in Nanchu, he returned defeated. This was because he was stubborn and competitive by nature. Although this kind of temperament had some advantages, when he was defeated, he often persisted in defeat.

When fighting, he will eventually win one day, but he will often refuse to retreat, and even be taken advantage of. King Qi has an arrogant personality and is easily unwilling to convince others. If the person admonishing is not someone he admires in his heart, he will often

He returned without success, so he could not defeat Ting Fei in Northern Xinjiang for several years. However, King Qi did have the talent of a general, and after experiencing the change of seizing the direct descendant, his temper became more tolerant, which allowed Dayong to maintain his power.

The stability of the northern border. When I met King Qi this time, I was not worried at first, because although he was imposing, his temper was still stubborn and hard to change, and his will to die was stronger than his desire to survive. I originally wanted to go back

Then he informed Ting Fei so that he could start from this direction.

But things changed after King Qi met Jiang Zhe. His stubborn will turned into a soft one, and his temper became much more cheerful. Even his former will to die became full of vitality. This kind of King Qi is not me.

I want to see him, and I’m even more worried about Jiang Zhe staying with King Qi. With such a counselor whom King Qi loves to advise him, the pressure on Ting Fei will be too great."

Xiao Huwei said: "Your Highness, isn't Jiang Zhe going back to Chang'an? We just have to find a way to prevent him from joining King Qi's army."

Lin Bi smiled coldly and said: "I don't believe Jiang Zhe will really go back to Chang'an. Under this situation, I'm afraid he will go directly to the army with King Qi. King Qi has a very domineering personality. I'm afraid it's Jiang Zhe who wants to accompany him.

Even if he takes Princess Changle back to Chang'an, he won't let her go."

Xiao Huwei was shocked: "It's impossible. Master Cizhen is here to convey the order. How dare Jiang Zhe violate Emperor Yong's order? And isn't he worried that Emperor Yong will suspect him of colluding with King Qi?"

Lin Bi smiled and said: "Have you seen the imperial edict? Didn't you just hear the message from Master Cizhen? How do you know what the real edict is? Moreover, is Jiang Zhe a person who obeys the imperial edict?"

Xiao Hu defended: "Then what is your highness's plan?"

Lin Bi looked at the sky in the distance and said: "I want to see if Jiang Zhe has the ability to enter the Dayong Army Camp. King Qi, Jiang Zhe, you are my thorn in the side of the Northern Han Dynasty, and I will never let you

He arrived at the battlefield easily. We met strangers and became close friends. He saw this on the battlefield. Li Xian, Li Xian, do you still have the heart to hate life and death?"

As soon as the dawn broke through the thick clouds, the quiet wilderness was awakened by the crisp sound of horse hooves and wheels. On the empty official road, a four-wheeled carriage covered with a green curtain was guarded by more than 400 knights.

Moving forward briskly, these more than 400 knights were divided into four teams, one team opened the way, one team blocked the rear, and the other two teams protected the carriage on the left and right. The colors of their armor were also divided into two colors, and the two teams guarding the carriage

There are teams of knights, one team is in black clothes and black armor, the other team is in red clothes, and the two teams of knights in front and behind are all in red clothes and armor. Anyone who knows the details of Dayong's army will definitely be surprised when they see it.

Because no matter who the army is in the Yong Army, they basically wear cyan armor, which is almost black. However, except for one army, the other armies will never wear pure black armor. That army is King Yong.

In addition, the guards of the King of Qi wore red armor, the guards of the Qin and Yi troops liked to wear white armor, and the imperial guards wore yellow armor. Now that King Yong has ascended the throne, the original imperial guards were renamed Longxiang Guards and are still responsible for guarding

In the Imperial City, the former Yong Guards were renamed the Tiger Guards to guard the palace city. The Dragon Guards, Tiger Guards and Tiger Guards were also called the Forbidden Army. The uniforms of the Tiger Guards were still black, and they did not change their previous style because they were responsible for protecting the emperor. Today

Who in Dayong doesn't know that, except for the Forbidden Army, not everyone can wear black armor. Then this group of nearly a hundred knights can only be the trusted tiger guards around Emperor Li Zhi of Dayong. But protect them together.

The carriage was driven by King Qi's guards, which made people wonder about the identity of the people in the carriage.

I smiled and looked at King Qi, who was frowning, and said: "Your Highness, this time I asked the Marquis of Donghai to help seal the East China Sea for half a month. Lin Bi would definitely not have the chance to send a message back in advance. With our strength,

We should be able to return to His Highness' camp safely. Why is Your Highness still worried?"

King Qi sighed and said: "I also believe that the Northern Han Dynasty has no way to send the information out. I didn't know until yesterday that you invited Lin Bi just to restrict the actions of the Northern Han Dynasty, and then mobilized the power of the Marquis of Donghai to help prevent the Northern Han Dynasty.

The army received intelligence in advance and ambushed us on the road. After all, this road is only a few dozen miles away from the border. If the Northern Han cavalry ambushed us on the road, it would be difficult for us to escape. This area is close to the border, and Dayong's military strength cannot

You have the absolute upper hand, and I can't mobilize too many troops to protect you, lest you scare the snake or be taken advantage of. But I brought 300 personal guards, and the emperor sent another 100 tigers to be your personal guards.

With these four hundred cavalry, even if we encounter the enemy, we can still find opportunities to break out or wait for reinforcements. Besides, if we don't have a few days to plan, I don't believe that the Northern Han Dynasty has the ability to lay a dragnet."

At this point, King Qi laughed and said: "Speaking of which, you and the Emperor are very cautious. Who would have thought that the Tiger Guards were already waiting in Binzhou, and as soon as Master Cizhen arrived and Lin Bi left, you would set off immediately. I'm afraid

Now Lin Bi is still lagging behind us, and even now that Lin Bi has sent back the news, it's too late."

I couldn't help but ask: "In this case, why is Your Highness still so worried? Are you worried about Li Lin? With Zhen'er taking care of him, are you still worried? Lin'er is still young. No matter how anxious you are, you can't let him go now.

Go to the battlefield, let him follow Zhen'er back to the capital this time, you don't have to worry. Master Cizhen will protect you along the way."

Li Xian frowned again and said: "I know Changle will protect Lin'er well. I wasn't worried at first, but somehow, I always feel that we have overlooked something? Although we have temporarily cut off Lin Bi and Beihan's

Intelligence channel, but there are masters of the Demon Sect in the Northern Han Dynasty. If they have got the information, I am worried that they will ambush you on the way. Suiyun, you are not good at martial arts. If you encounter the enemy, I am worried about your safety."

I chuckled and said: "You always have to take this kind of risk. This is the shortest way. Hurry up and we will reach the camp in five or six days. There will be 300,000 troops to protect you by then. Your Highness doesn't have to worry. That's it."

When we meet the enemy, Zhe is relieved that His Highness is commanding us to resist the enemy. Besides, Xiao Shunzi also goes with the army, and at worst, he can protect me from the encirclement."

Li Xian's brows relaxed slightly. Strangely enough, he originally thought Jiang Zhe's plan was very thorough, but along the way Li Xian noticed something strange. There used to be Northern Han cavalry cruising in this area, but this time there was a...

None of them happened, which made Li Xian feel that there was a danger of a storm coming.

At this time, someone reported outside the car: "Your Highness, Mr. Jiang, something is wrong. There is no response from the scouts sent out."

Li Xian frowned and said: "The terrain in front is flat. It is the battlefield where the cavalry can exert its power. We must be on guard. Send two people, not on horseback, to the front to take a look." The two guards of King Qi dismounted and took off their heavy clothes.

The armored man put on his plain clothes and disappeared into the grass on the roadside, disappearing from my sight in the blink of an eye.

I looked around through the window and saw that in late autumn, the withered grass on both sides of the road was as tall as a person. When the autumn wind blew, the waves undulated. In addition, the terrain of this road was quite high, and both sides extended diagonally downwards.

Even if there are thousands of troops hidden, they may not be able to see it. I can't help but feel cold in my heart. Is there really an ambush? Could it be that I have set up so many obstacles in the hope that they will think that I am preparing to return to Chang'an, but all of them have failed.

Have you? But how could they set up an ambush in such a short period of time? Although the border of Dayong is now almost undefended for the Northern Han Dynasty, it does not mean that they can enter the territory of Dayong without careful planning.

At this time, a sharp copper whistle suddenly came from the front, and I trembled in my heart. This was the alarm sound from the scouts. They did not return quietly. It seemed that they had encountered great danger. It seemed that not only was there an ambush, but also I was afraid that

The scale is still huge.

When the King of Qi heard the siren, he raised his sword eyebrows, jumped out of the carriage, and climbed on a fiery red horse. The cavalry guards were all well-trained sergeants, and they quickly formed a formation to break through the enemy. He was always in charge.

A worried look appeared on the face of Xiao Shunzi, who was driving the car. He checked the horses and asked in a low voice: "Sir, the carriage is too slow and I'm afraid I can't keep up. What should we do?"

When I was in danger, I calmed down and said calmly: "You and I are not good at commanding on the spot. His Highness the King of Qi has to worry about these matters. This carriage is made of fine steel, and there are steel plates embedded around the carriage. As long as it is protected,

Once you get into the carriage, you don't have to worry about my safety. You will also obey His Highness's instructions in a moment. In this situation, I'm afraid we will all die here if we don't use a surprise to win."

At this time, the King of Qi had ordered to change the route and rush towards Dayong territory. It seemed that he wanted to meet up with the Yong army guarding this area. At this moment, horns sounded from all directions. I had already blocked the steel plate inside the car window.

Looking out through the small window above the car door, I saw that the Northern Han cavalry had appeared in my field of vision. The men were like tigers and the horses were like dragons. They weaved in and out, and soon surrounded our army from a distance. I used

I did some mental arithmetic and found that the enemy army numbered at least 3,000. This was definitely not a chance encounter. The troops that entered the territory of Dayong in the Northern Han Dynasty usually consisted of small groups of cavalry of about a hundred people. At this time, I saw a black background erected directly in front of me.

There is a big red flag with a big word "stone" written on it.

"Flying Tiger General Shi Ying," I heard King Qi shouting loudly: "How dare you sneak into my territory of Dayong and wreak havoc, but don't you see me in Dayong's eyes?"

Under the banner, a middle-aged general in his thirties with a thin face and a stern expression also said loudly: "Dayong of the Northern Han Dynasty is an enemy country. His Highness the King of Qi does not know how to respect himself and takes risks lightly. No wonder Shi.

Today you are in danger of death. If you dismount and surrender, or I will not take your life because of your noble status." Next to the general was a sergeant wearing a Northern Han army uniform. His faceplate had been lowered and could not be seen.

From his appearance, I could see with my superb eyesight that the sergeant was pointing in the direction of my carriage and saying something. Then I saw the middle-aged general's eyes also falling on the carriage, and his cold gaze swept over,

I just felt cold all over. At this time, the middle-aged general shouted loudly: "My sons, kill Li Xian and capture the carriage. Who can bring me Li Xian's head and a reward of a hundred catties?

If you can capture the person in that carriage for me, I will be rewarded with a thousand gold reward."

Then, the middle-aged general closed his upper armor, swung the horse in his hand, and took the lead to rush down. Qi King Li Xian smiled coldly, pointed forward with the sword in his hand, and said loudly: "Break through!" After that, I

I noticed that the carriage started to run quickly, and I quickly held the handle on the wall of the carriage tightly, and the small window on the door was closed by Xiao Shunzi from the outside. It was dark inside the carriage, and I couldn't see the battlefield outside, but

I could feel the deafening shouts of death all around me.

At this moment, I smiled silently in the darkness. I had figured out a lot of things. Why was Lin Bi clearly still behind us, but the ambush seemed to have been waiting for a long time? It was just because I misjudged one person, Lu Can, and only

It might be Lu Can. He went to see Lin Bi, not to form an alliance or anything else, but to reach an agreement with Lin Bi. Nan Chu was responsible for delivering intelligence, and Northern Han was responsible for the ambush. No matter how resourceful I am, facing thousands of troops,

There is only one fate for the horse. Lin Bi and Lu Can both understand the principle of defeating skill with clumsiness. Strangely enough, I should have felt sad, but my first disciple Lu Can was so cruel that he wanted to kill me.

Master was sent to hell. But there was some faint joy in my heart. In my opinion, Lu Can was a little less cruel and stubborn, and now he can be said to be my proud disciple. I listened silently to the sounds outside.

, I know that I will be of no use here. If I die here, I wonder if it will be a joke?
